I’m Not Impressed With Your Performance In AFCON – Tinubu Tells Super Eagles by 377(op): 4:56pm On Jan 25, 2024
Tinubu’s message was delivered through the Minister of Sports, John Enoh, who spoke to the players from Abuja via Zoom on Wednesday night in Abidjan.

According to Enoh, the President said he was not too impressed with the showing of the team during the group stage.

President Bola Tinubu has urged the Super Eagles to improve their performance and do better in the final stages of the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Cote d’Ivoire, saying he was not impressed with the group matches.

Tinubu’s message was delivered through the Minister of Sports, John Enoh, who spoke to the players from Abuja via Zoom on Wednesday night in Abidjan.

According to Enoh, the President said he was not too impressed with the showing of the team during the group stage.

The minister said, “I had a meeting with the President yesterday. I went to the villa for something else and the President cornered me and said we (Eagles) managed to qualify and I said that’s how we are going to keep going until we win the tournament.

“He said that I should tell the players that he wasn’t too impressed with the last match but he knows that now that they are off the group stages, they are going to impress him more.

“That’s what the President told me and it means that the President is actually watching your matches. Would you believe this? And the President is urging you and also showing an understanding of the game because he knows that there is a lot of caution at the group stage and from the round of 16, you are going to be more impressive.

“I remember that in 2022 in Cameroon, Egypt as a country struggled to qualify but they went ahead to play the finals.”

Responding, team captain, Ahmed Musa, thanked the sports minister but also called on the President to come to see them play live saying it would serve as a motivation to the players.

The Super Eagles will play the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in the last 16 of the tournament on Saturday at the Felix Houphouet -Boigny Stadium in Abidjan.

Does he know that Super Eagle was undefeated and was first in their group?

The aesthetic is no longer the better part of football but winning.

They were not 1st in the group. And they only won those matches they did due to a penalty and an own goal.

Very rubbish performance.

"You have done well, but there is still room for improvement - you can do much better"

That's what Mr President should rather be saying.

Super Eagle's performance at the ongoing AFCON, a total reflection of the state of the nation. From the stolen mandate during the presidential election to the state of the economy, no one is impressed, no one is happy.

The players are scared of getting wounded so they take the game with levity, this shows that there is no patriotism in the action at all and this is not it, home based players would perform with more zeal so Baba should please influence an improvement in the standardization of our local leagues
